I've never had to do it, how did you handle the olive mate?First you do as said in previous posts, if this doesn't help, then get the size of the cable by looking on the pot for a number, see if there is a compatible size in metric, or source a pot that fits.
If you are unsuccessful then as the end is no good cut it off. Now the tricky part. Carefully dismantle the pot assembly, cleaning all parts carefully, make sure you get the three indentations out where the disc sits you can then re-use the pot and use new compound and a new disc. You should have a good termination It can be done, I have had to do it.
